John Grisham Book order (chronological)

Nespravodlivo odsúdení je pôsobivá zbierka desiatich skutočných prípadov z amerického súdnictva, v ktorých nevinní ľudia strávili za mrežami celé desaťročia - niektorí s vyhliadkou na trest smrti - zatiaľ čo skutoční páchatelia zostali na slobode. Kniha nie je román, ale zbierka skutočných prípadov z amerického súdnictva. Príbehy sú písané s napätím typickým pre Grishamove právne thrillery, no všetky udalosti sú reálne a dôkladne zdokumentované. John Grisham a Jim McCloskey v každom prípade sledujú, čo viedlo k nespravodlivému verdiktu a ako prebiehal boj za rehabilitáciu odsúdených.

Die Schriftstellerin Mercer Mann sucht nach einer packenden Geschichte für ihren nächsten Roman. Da macht sie Bruce Cable, der charmante Buchhändler von Camino Island, auf ein Drama aufmerksam, das sich quasi direkt vor ihren Augen abspielt: Ein skrupelloses Bauunternehmen will sich eine verlassene Insel zwischen Florida und Georgia unter den Nagel reißen. Nur die letzte Bewohnerin der Insel, Lovely Jackson, stellt sich ihm in den Weg. Sie ist die Nachfahrin entflohener Sklaven, die dort seit Jahrhunderten gelebt haben, und will die Insel niemals profitgierigen Weißen überlassen. Mit Bruce Cables Hilfe nimmt sie den Kampf vor Gericht auf. Und vielleicht hilft ihr ja auch die alte Legende, dass jeder Weiße, der die Insel böswillig betritt, mit einem tödlichen Fluch belegt ist. Denn schon bald gibt es die ersten Toten …

Each narrative showcases the relentless struggle for exoneration, emphasizing the challenges faced by those wrongfully imprisoned. With suspenseful storytelling, the book sheds light on the urgent need for reform and justice.

Dark Isle off the Florida coast is said to be cursed: drownings, disappearances and hauntings have been the fate of intruders. The people who lived there were once enslaved. Now abandoned, it is the target of greedy developers. Lovely Jackson is the last survivor and claims to be its legal owner. But there is not a shred of evidence to prove that is true. It's unlikely that the developers will be deterred by the claims of one old woman. They have millions; Lovely only has Steven Mahon, a pro bono environmental lawyer, and Mercer Mann, a floundering novelist, to fight in her corner. With the court case looming they're in a race against time to unearth the devastating secrets of the island and to see justice, finally, served.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • John Grisham's most powerful, surprising, and suspenseful thriller yet • “A murder mystery, a courtroom drama, a family saga.” —USA Today October 1946, Clanton, Mississippi Pete Banning was Clanton, Mississippi’s favorite son—a decorated World War II hero, the patriarch of a prominent family, a farmer, father, neighbor, and a faithful member of the Methodist church. Then one cool October morning he rose early, drove into town, and committed a shocking crime. Pete's only statement about it—to the sheriff, to his lawyers, to the judge, to the jury, and to his family—was: "I have nothing to say." He was not afraid of death and was willing to take his motive to the grave. In a major novel unlike anything he has written before, John Grisham takes us on an incredible journey, from the Jim Crow South to the jungles of the Philippines during World War II; from an insane asylum filled with secrets to the Clanton courtroom where Pete’s defense attorney tries desperately to save him. Reminiscent of the finest tradition of Southern Gothic storytelling, The Reckoning would not be complete without Grisham’s signature layers of legal suspense, and he delivers on every page.

Given the importance of what they do, and the controversies that often surround them, and the violent people they sometimes confront, it is remarkable that in the history of this country only four active federal judges have been murdered. Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five. Who is the Racketeer? And what does he have to do with the judge’s untimely demise? His name, for the moment, is Malcolm Bannister. Job status? Former attorney. Current residence? The Federal Prison Camp near Frostburg, Maryland. On paper, Malcolm’s situation isn’t looking too good these days, but he’s got an ace up his sleeve. He knows who killed Judge Fawcett, and he knows why. The judge’s body was found in his remote lakeside cabin. There was no forced entry, no struggle, just two dead bodies: Judge Fawcett and his young secretary. And one large, state-of-the-art, extremely secure safe, opened and emptied. What was in the safe? The FBI would love to know. And Malcolm Bannister would love to tell them. But everything has a price—especially information as explosive as the sequence of events that led to Judge Fawcett’s death. And the Racketeer wasn’t born yesterday . . . Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this wickedly clever new novel from John Grisham, the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

Vader Luther Krank, moeder Nora Krank en dochter Blair Krank. Een doodgewoon gezin, in een doodgewoon huis, in een doodgewone straat, in een doodgewone buitenwijk. Wat de familie Krank te wachten staat, is echter allesbehalve doodgewoon. De winter is aangebroken en de feestdagen staan voor de deur. Omdat Blair voor langere tijd in het buitenland verblijft, heeft Luther Krank een plan opgevat, een plan dat zo absurd is dat niemand in zijn omgeving het zal kunnen begrijpen, laat staan accepteren. In plaats van zijn geld te besteden aan een peperdure kerst thuis, heeft Luther Krank twee tickets geboekt voor een cruise door het Caribisch gebied. Dit jaar geen versierde boom voor de familie Krank met veel te dure cadeaus, geen stapels handgeschreven kerstkaarten, geen gestress over het uit de hand gelopen kerstdiner, maar lekker luieren in de warme zon. Maar als Luther Krank denkt dat dit zomaar kan, heeft hij het goed mis. Want aan sommige dingen in het leven valt niet te tornen, en kerstmis is daar een van. En dus bedenken de buren een plan: Luther en Nora Krank zullen kerst vieren, of ze dat nou leuk vinden of niet... Met Onder de winterzon heeft John Grisham een verrassende, komische roman geschreven over wat er gebeurt als iemand besluit om voor één keer alle conventies aan zijn laars te lappen en niet te doen wat er van hem verwacht wordt.
